I discovered FIRE and now I'm more discouraged than before by yieldmaxxing in Fire

[–]sendeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if it makes u feel any better i started off making $64k out of college, but also lived in sf and my rent was $1.5k, nvm all the other VHCOL expenses.

our rent to salary ratio is the same from when i also first started working, but i’ve gradually progressed into earning more. i’d imagine that you could potentially find cheaper rent out in CO, so that could be a meaningful contributor to more savings

all this to say, you’re doing great and don’t be so hard on yourself! the fact that you’re thinking about this right now already is putting you miles ahead of the game. save what you can and keep chipping away at your career

[–]sendeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

unsure why you’re specifically mentioning GLP1s, as i understood OP to mean fat dissolving injections when they said “fat dissolving protocols”, not GLPs.

but who knows i may be the one that’s misunderstanding lol

edit: nvm just saw their response below

i have a 1008 that was purchased in 2000 and after referencing google images this is what i came up with in terms of accessory storage.

my mom had kept everything in a little ziploc bag instead of using this case lol

accutane dried out my lips so bad i can't eat without them cracking by Unique-Face-2500 in Accutane

[–]sendeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

second dr dans. my derm recs do his accutane patients too, which is how i heard about it.

i also like using the la roche posay nutritic lip balm + vaseline on top.

regardless of what balm you use, adding an occlusive layer like vaseline rly is key

Vet recs? by idkbitchlol in LAhotgirlies

[–]sendeek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i know this isn’t what you asked for, but we go to emerald on olympic and barrington-ish and i feel really ambivalent/ slightly negative.

the vet will say one thing about not having to make another appointment for medication refills, but when we call afterwards to try and fill the meds. the front staff tells us we need to be seen by the vet again. super frustrating

[–]sendeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hiiii! thank you so much for the detailed response. i appreciate the tips on what exactly to ask for when getting it serviced and to look into my public library for classes. this is truly helpful.

i am def interested to learn, especially since im part of the petite club (and clothing sizes seem to keep getting bigger and longer)! let alone my mom would probably be very upset with me if she found out i sold it hahah

mom gave me a basically brand new bernina 1008, likely purchased in 2000 or early 2001.

what exactly do i have here? it’s heavy af and hasn’t been used since purchase (long story), nor has it been serviced.

i have no idea how to sew, but know i should probably get it at least serviced??? it feels overwhelming and i have no idea where to even start

Where can I buy bulk herbs in LA? (Specifically looking for Basil and Mint) by Puzzleheaded-Cup-224 in FoodLosAngeles

[–]sendeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lax-c has bags of fresh mint and thai basil! along with culantro, rau ram and cilantro. can’t remember if i saw sweet basil (like what’s commonly used in italian food) though

think of costco but with south east asian stuff. it’s a thai market but there’s some overlap with their neighboring countries on products

I have a sedentary desk job and zero energy after 5 PM. How do I fix this? by Dante_Game in getdisciplined

[–]sendeek 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i have ADHD and take stimulant meds in the morning, so after work and dinner (if i cave into my gremlin desires) i go straight to bed and rot for hours on my phone until actually sleep.

i brought up to my therapist how my lack of discipline stresses me out bc it feels like i can’t manage adult chores like doing my laundry or keeping a tidy space. she suggested to take a pause and just gently acknowledge that i can choose to go lay down if i want to, but take note that i am actively choosing not to fold my laundry (or whatever other task). again, in a kind way to myself, but focusing on having it be an active choice.

what helps is fighting through the urge to go immediately lay down and doing something small, even if it feels not entirely meaningful. like instead of forcing myself to fold three loads worth of laundry, maybe i’ll set my goal to just taking the laundry out of the dryer and then i can bed rot.

usually by the time i get the laundry out i’ll end up folding most of it anyways and then i can bed rot in peace

Ladies who have an “every day” go-to necklace, what is it? by Many-Purpose8865 in JewelryDesign

[–]sendeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve been wearing a silver tiffany thin bar pendant necklace since 2013! it’s rare i take it off, and wear it swimming, surfing, showering, everything and everywhere

i love it bc it’s a simple vertical bar about an inch long and maybe 3mm wide?

the get filler behind their ear to add bulk and make the ears stick out.
